Baileys Better Biome 1.5kg

Baileys Better Biome brings together three valuable digestive enhancers in the form of a prebiotic, a probiotic yeast and postbiotics which work synergistically as a unique support package for the horse’s microbiome to help promote optimum gut health.

Prebiotic – Baileys Digest Plus, a short chain Fructo-Oligosaccharide (sc-FOS) acts as a food source for beneficial gut bacteria helping them to flourish at the expense of pathogenic species.

Probiotic yeast – Saccharomyces cerevisiae stimulates fibre-digesting bacteria, helps increase their numbers and also helps reduce the risk of excess acidity in the hindgut.

Postbiotics – These are defined as inanimate microorganisms and/or the end products of microbial fermentation, like metabolites, that confer a health benefit on the host.  The natural microbial population of the horse’s gut are continually producing these metabolites, which include volatile fatty acids from fibre, B vitamins and other compounds, which are beneficial to health and well-being.  Better Biome supplies an additional source of these metabolites in the diet daily to help ensure the horse always has a consistent supply, regardless of any stress factors which may affect the microbiome.

Stress can upset the horse’s microbiome and impact on their health and well-being.  Feeding a combination of pre- and probiotics helps support the hindgut microflora through these times of stress, while the addition of postbiotics means the horse is less reliant on its microbiome to produce these beneficial metabolites while it becomes reestablished.
